Ok, guys I haven't fished for any cats at T-Ville....But I did come upon two guys and a gal fishing for them one night at T-Ville. They put in at Settlers Trace, went up towards Possum Ridge and fished in a cove there. They sat out in about 20 feet of water and fished shallow around 6 feet max they said. Had different poles out and scattered from 2 feet down to 6 feet deep. They were using chicken strips soaked in Strawberry Jello liquid. They put in t 9:30 pm and were coming off the water at 12:00 am, when I had quit for the night. They had both of their live wells full of channels and big blues around 4 lbs each. Biggest one was about 12 lbs.

So try the Strawberry Jello Liquid and soak that chicken, I guess you need to add more water than whats called for on the directions, so as that the jello doesn't get solid, but stays loose..... These guys swore by it, so give it a try.....
